Never ending...

Well, we have had a busy busy week last week...starting Monday the 17th through Tuesday the 25th we have had something going on everyday during the day and every evening! I took a look at my calendar and was thinking WOW! where did all that busyness come from? But we are healthy and alive still after being busy and have had so much fun! Of course it wouldn't be a complete week without a few meltdowns by a 3 year old and even our 5 year old! So here is a journey through the past week...

Ok, these are backwards in order...opps...I always seem to do that!  One of these days I will learn!  :)  

Sat. Aug 22nd - Family Beach Day with our church -

it was the first one we have ever done with the whole church, it was a BEAUTIFUL day at Pacific City, windy but sunny! It was PACKED there too!  But we had an awesome time!  Hiked up the HUGE dune there, played in the water, beach volleyball and just chatted!  DAn's mom took Cami and Brownie Friday and Sat so we could enjoy the day with just the boys!  THANKS Mom S.! :)  

Here is Pastor Carl skim boarding...he had some awesome falls...it was pretty funny! :)

AJ, Lily watching Carl, looks like he is going to fall over...:)

Micah...super tired...we had arrived at the beach around 10:45 a.m. and didn't get home til almost 10 p.m.  LONG day!  So he was hiding under the towel to get warm and trying to go to sleep! 

My wonderful friend Amanda...with Baby #2 - BOY...this girl is a HUGE blessing in my life and I love her dearly!  Don't mind our awesome hair styles going on..;)

Kayla dug this huge deep hole!

Little Anna...her and Kayla (from above) were two of the girls that were in Mexico with us!  

Playin a lil beach volleyball - it was so fun to play, even though it was a lil tough with the wind blowing so hard!  

THURSDAY- Aug 20th - Josiah had his 5 year old Dr. appt that morning at 9 a.m. and had to get 4 shots!  :(  Poor guy!  He was not very happy...of course...so the nurse told us we should keep him moving so he wouldn't get so sore...so I decided at the last minute to head to Albany to the Swanson Pool to spend the afternoon there, I knew it meant having the kids miss a good nap, but it was TOTALLY worth it!  Dan's mom came along to help me out with the kids!  They had a blast and we were there for 3 hours!  Last time we were there in June Cami didn't want to play in the water, this time she warmed up to it and LOVED it!

She is a fearless lil lady...:)

Micah Man's turn...

Cami, Micah and myself...the water was so warm...it is a great place!  It does get a lil packed, but the kids didn't seem to mind!

Josiah...obviously the shots were not bothering him at the time!  ;)

TUESDAY - AUG. 18th - Josiah's BIRTHDAY!  

Dan's brother Mike came up to our house and we headed over that evening to pick up Dan's mom from the shuttle and met up with Jill and Nolan at Chuck - E- Cheese's...the kids had a blast and it was a perfect night to go...not very busy at all!  Micah's flipflops got taken...so he was sad...Cami loved it there, and Josiah of course loved being the "king" on his bday!  Thanks for the fun crown for 'Siah Grandma! ;)

The boys and their new UNO games from Gma! 

'Si opening up presents!  STar WArs, Money, Transformers and Legos...fun...

Nolan, Jill, Mike and Mom 

the boys on a "ride" 

Micah got the other hat...he looks like a mouse! :)

Josiah's birthday morning we picked up my mom to go to the Riverfront Park and invited David, Hannah and Isaiah, he was unfortunately kinda a grumpy bday boy so we weren't there very long...and after we went to Sonic for lunch for his free bday meal!  Thanks Mom, and Pfnister's for coming along!  Also, Happy LATE Birthday to My Mom, her's was on the 13th!  WE love you Mom!  :)

Isaiah and myself...he really like the water! :) Love this lil man!

Micah and Hannah running!

The cousin's! :)  They are so fun!  Wish you could have come Carissa to watch your daughter, she LOVED it! ;)

Monday AUG. 17th - Ashley, Paul and Westly came over for dinner to chat and Westly and Cami got light sabers to play with...he is a few months younger than Cami!

This girl knows her light saber!  Sounds and All! :)

Whew...what a week...and it isn't even over yet! :)
